Epstein Accusers Say Trump Is NOT Guilty | 9/4/25

2h 10m
NBC News interviewed a group of Epstein survivors, including victims and family members of victims who have since passed away, and they were asked point-blank: Did they see or hear President Trump do anything illegal around Epstein? Their answer will be very upsetting to leftists. Stu attacks the media for suddenly adopting the conspiracy theory that Trump was involved with Jeffrey Epstein after the election. Stu and Pat review Canadian journalist Malcolm Gladwell’s recent podcast interview, in which he denounced all of his previous beliefs that biological men should compete in women’s sports, claiming he was "cowed" into supporting it. The Trump administration administered a strike against a Venezuelan boat believed to be controlled by terrorist cartel members harboring drugs. Was this move legal? Stu and Pat discuss. Is Trump considering an administration job for New York Mayor Eric Adams (D) to force a head-to-head gubernatorial race between radical Islamist Zohran Mamdani (D) and former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D)? Stu and Pat react to Senator Tim Kaine (D-Va.) claiming he finds it troubling that our rights come from God and not the government. The guys discuss the beginning of the NFL season.

and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

Oh, come on.

They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

Whatever.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.

When you think of being prepared, you probably picture things like flashlights and batteries and maybe a pantry full of canned goods.

But there's one category most people forget until it's way too late, which is medicine.

It's a big deal.

You might take a medicine every single day that is crucial to your survival.

When that's not there, it could be a minor problem you might want to address in advance.

That's where the Jace Medical, Jace Case from Jace Medical comes in.

They provide

an emergency supply of medications that can kind of bridge this gap for you.

You know, you're talking about real prescription medications prepared by board-certified doctors and delivered directly to your door.

It's the kind of thing you hope you never need.

But if you do, you'll be incredibly grateful you had it.

Now let's get to work.

Down the road where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.

Stand your ground when times get tight.

Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is

the Glenn Beck program.

Yes!

Welcome!

Yeah, Patton Stewart for Glenn this week.

888727-BECK.

Epstein victims got together yesterday.

And we will share with you some of their thoughts and

what the plan is, I guess, for some of these victims to get together and maybe come up with a list of names, which would be great.

We'll get into that much more coming up in 60 seconds.

Being a Dallas Cowboys fan probably feels like a gamble, but sleep shouldn't feel like a gamble.

You lie down, you hope that maybe tonight will be a little different.

You're hoping that you won't wake up a sweaty, tangled, freezing mess.

Well, Cozy Earth was like, hey, let's just solve this problem.

They have great sheets.

They're made from ultra-soft, breathable fabric that adapts to your body temperature so you stay comfortable all night, no matter what the season is.

The moment you slide into bed, you notice the difference.

It is smoother than cotton, it's softer than silk, and somehow gets better with every wash.

This is true.

These are fantastic sheets.

Cozy Earth has been featured by top reviewers and thousands of five-star reviews from regular people who just sleep like it's their job now.

These sheets are luxury, but they're also durable and sustainable and thoughtfully made to last.

Once you try them, it's hard to go back to anything else.

And if you're already sleeping on Cozy Earth sheets, you know what I'm talking about.

If not, now's the time.

If you're ready to upgrade your comfort, go to cozyearth.com, use the code Beck, get 40% off your joggers, your pants, your shirts, everything, up to 40% right now.

If you post a

post-purchase survey thing, you just tell them that you heard it for the Glenn Beck program.

We'd appreciate that, of course.

But you like the sleep and you don't worry about the survey.

Anyway, Cozy Earth built for real life.

Yeah.

All right.

So

there's a committee that's been put together, and they've been interviewing some of the Epstein victims.

And

here they are

talking about Donald Trump.

They're asked a question about President Trump that is fairly interesting.

I do have to ask, and I know

it's just something that I think we're compelled to at this moment with the attention of President Trump, with these questions around a pardon.

Did anybody see or hear of the president himself doing anything inappropriate as it related to Jeffrey Epsom?

No.

No.

So now

we're not interested anymore.

Oh, we're all out of time for this interview.

Sorry.

What are you people even doing here?

Why'd we even get you guys together?

We don't care anymore.

And I will say, Pat, we are critical of the media at times.

I'm glad that she was able to maintain her constitutional responsibility to ask that question.

Yes.

She had to.

Had to.

She has to ask it.

She has to.

It's a requirement.

It's the only thing that she's required to do as a journalist is to ask that question.

She wasn't required to ask any questions about Joe Biden.

No, but

she was required to ask that question.

Bill Clinton?

Which did she ask about?

No.

No need.

There's no need.

There's no constitutional requirement to ask a question about him.

Even though the victims did mention that he was on a flight to Africa with one of the victims, at least.

Now,

how many times?

What do you do?

27 flights with him?

Something like that?

Every one of us can say we were on a flight with an internationally recognized creep and a bunch of their victims.

We've all flown to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania on a flight like that.

No, I don't recall ever having made that flight with anybody.

No?

Ever.

Really?

I've never been on a flight.

Well, maybe

you were probably connecting to a different location, but you did pass through Tanzania.

No, I actually didn't.

I actually didn't.

Really?

Yeah.

Isn't that weird?

Can you see me?

Am I the only one?

It's just me.

I think so.

I'm looking around the studio.

I mean, everyone's got it on their passports that they're holding up.

I don't understand where you're coming.

It's, you know, it's.

Look, a lot of people interacted with this guy,

including Donald Trump.

Before.

Importantly, before we knew he was molesting children.

The interactions after this knowledge is public are a bit questionable.

I like how Epstein's brother has said that it was Jeffrey Epstein who cut off contact with Trump after he realized that he didn't have any integrity.

Like, oh,

there's a guy who

cares about the integrity of the people he hangs out with.

You know, I'm going to go ahead and just...

dissolve

my interest in any statement made by the Epstein family.

Oh, really?

The whole entire family?

And just saying,

no, thank you.

Okay.

I'm just going to say no thank you to all of them.

That doesn't mean all of them were involved in Jeffrey's shenanigans, but I'm going to go ahead and just disregard things they say.

That's just a general law of mine.

Okay.

Don't care.

So you have to disregard the rest of the Epstein family.

Just like she had to ask that question herself.

You got to disregard the entire family.

We all have trials and tribulations, burdens that we bear.

That's one of mine.

Okay.

Got to make that rule.

I know it's a tough one.

It's so fascinating, I think,

when it comes to the way the media has acted as if none of this information has been available before Donald Trump took office.

Donald Trump has been in office for a few months.

I would assume the investigation on Jeffrey Epstein, which is about a guy who is not alive and hasn't been alive for a while, about a case that largely occurred before 2008.

My guess is there's not been a lot of new information that's popped up in the past few months.

Now, to us, some of it's been released.

We've seen a few new things, not much, but a few.

But to the FBI,

I don't think there's that much new information.

It's fascinating that the media suddenly cares about this.

We went through an entire entire administration when Joe Biden was president.

With, I would say, the number one goal of the administration was to sink Donald Trump in any way possible.

Forget the fact that they wanted to spend us into oblivion or change all of our, you know, traditions and principles and all these other things.

Sure, that was a side goal.

I think their number one goal was to take out Donald Trump in any way necessary, including just manufacturing crimes all over the place.

The idea that they went four years with information on Donald Trump sitting there in front of them and did nothing about it is quite possibly the most insane position ever taken by anyone.

And the entire media just adopted it.

Yep.

What the hell is going on?

Can you at least address the fact that Joe Biden was there and you asked exactly zero questions about Jeffrey Epstein for four years when all of this information was in their hands?

It's incredible.

It's really incredible.

It's incredible.

Part of it is unbelievable.

A lot of people, by the way, on the right, were asking questions during that time.

Yes.

Now, most of them did not think that Donald Trump had anything to do with it with very good reason.

There's never been even a real accusation against Donald Trump as it is involved in this case.

It's just...

It's like a media conspiracy.

They just decided to adopt the craziest people on TikTok and Twitter and act like it's a news story.

Now, Jeffrey Epstein is a news story.

The whole thing is a massive thing.

There's a lot we don't know about it.

But to try to make the story about Donald Trump is just insane and honestly disrespectful to all the victims.

Yeah.

The actual victims.

Yeah.

Like, yeah, they would have held on to this information the whole time if Donald Trump

had been mentioned in any of these files.

If they had any information on him at all, that he did anything inappropriate, the Biden administration would have just held that close to the vest.

You know, they would have used it a long time ago.

They tried to bankrupt him because

he misreported, allegedly, the value of Mar-a-Lago as an expensive piece of real estate.

Incredible.

It's completely nuts.

They went to any extent to sink this guy.

Nobody's ever done that before, though.

Donald Trump was the first

to over-inflate the value of his property.

Nobody's ever done that in the history of property.

By the way, weird.

To my eye, he didn't inflate the value of Mar-a-Lago.

I would say he undercut it.

There's no way you could purchase it for the price that they were saying

the actual cost of it was.

Do you remember what the price was?

The number off the top of my head.

But I remember thinking, like, that doesn't sound hysteria.

You can't buy a normal house for that, let alone Mar-a-Lago.

Completely nuts.

Now, look,

all of this being said, and by the way, we should point out that

you had to say that comment about Mar-a-Lago.

You were required by the Constitution.

Yes,

you had to ask that question.

I had to ask how much it was worth.

You had to.

Had to.

All of this being said, it's like

the most

obvious thing about the Biden administration, other than maybe that they were completely incompetent and that the president wasn't really alive for most of the term.

Other than that, the most clear thing that we know is they would take information like, hey, we think you have a couple of documents and try to turn it into an international case that gets the guy thrown in prison.

They tried this over and over and over and over again, despite the fact that the current president of the United States at the time also had documents at his house.

Well, yeah, but that was in his garage, which was

impenetrable.

It was in his garage by his Corvette.

So there was no access whatsoever to any outside person.

Including, by the way, drug addict children.

Those people could not get into that garage.

They can't get in there.

It was impenetrable.

Definitely not from people who were actively messaging foreign companies and promising that their dad was going to get revenge on them.

That guy could walk into the garage at any time.

Couldn't get in there.

Or, I mean, he couldn't.

Couldn't get in there.

By the way, you needed to, you were required to get in there.

I had to say that.

Constitutionally required to say that.

You were.

The fact that, like, I just can't even believe it.

Now, they say that there was one of these victims that was on the

Epstein list that was, I guess, minor victim number one in one of the cases.

Never been named before.

It's just come out publicly.

And she was talking about how they, you know,

I heard

the media say that her and Jeffrey Epstein had a a relationship starting at the time that she was 14.

That's not a relationship, guys.

No.

Just so everybody is aware, if you happen to be out there thinking, I wonder if this is a relationship or not.

A girl who's 14 hooking up with a creepy guy after a massage, not a relationship,

just in case you're looking...

I know they have those style guides at a lot of these media sources where they, if that's what your style guide is, you should leave the company immediately.

Jared from Subway might be running it.

Not a relationship, but stayed, apparently kept sleeping with him until

she was 17, in which he broke it off for the reason that she was, quote, too old.

Oh, man.

Apparently told her this.

At the time, she...

panicked when she got a call from the FBI or one of the investigating sources.

I don't remember which one it was.

And she panicked.

And after after she hadn't had any contact with Epstein for a year because she was too old at 17,

called Epstein and was like, hey, these people are calling me.

What do I do?

Epstein said to her,

number one, never call me again.

And number two, a lawyer will be reaching out to you.

Wow.

So she was represented in the case by

a lawyer provided by Jeffrey Epstein initially.

That's how he was covering these things.

Wow.

And so anyway, she didn't admit it at the time.

She wound up admitting it a decade later.

It was one of the reasons why he wound up getting arrested again.

Anyway,

but again, no, there's no tie to Donald Trump here.

I know everyone in the entire world must tie every freaking news story to this one single individual.

But I have news for you.

He's not involved in every single news story.

He's not involved in every single moment of your life.

He's not involved in every single decision you make with your family.

He's not, this is different.

He is the president of the United States.

Yes, he's an important figure.

He's actually a pretty historically important president,

but he is not the end-all-be-all of every news story.

And I know that's what the media wants.

I guess, I don't know if it gets him clicks or they just hate him so much and they just want to bring him up every single time.

But

if it were an integral part of this story, we would have known about it 10, 15 years ago.

Of course we would have known about it.

There's no question about that.

We would have heard that he did inappropriate things with some of these girls.

We would have already heard about it long before now.

Of course.

Of course, we would have.

I mean, they're at the point, Pat, where they are going back and have watched like home videos of events that both Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump were and are freeze-framing segments where they walk by each other.

I know it's and releasing them as news stories.

It's insanity.

And you know what?

He keeps calling this

play cut to where he calls the upscale.

He's asked about the files again.

So this is a Democrat hoax that never ends.

You know, it reminds me a little of the Kennedy situation.

We gave him everything over and over again, more and more and more, and nobody's ever satisfied.

From what I understand, I could check, but from what I understand, thousands of pages of documents have been given.

But it's really a Democrat hoax because they're trying to get people to talk about something that's totally irrelevant to the success that we've had as a nation since I've been president.

Now, we've had a look at the I mean, okay, we've talked about the success that he's had,

but we've also talked about the Epstein situation because it's

not, I wish it were just a Democrat hoax.

It isn't.

There are actual victims here, and the victims should have justice.

And

the men who abused them should be brought to justice.

But the Democrats didn't even care about this

until now.

Until Donald Trump was

until now.

And really, until Donald Trump was like an online meme about this case, like it's not even, I mean, we all know the relationship went back from well before

these things were known.

So there was always, I mean, he was in the files about this long, long ago, right?

Like mostly just to say, hey, look at what Jeffrey Epstein is saying or doing here.

And I just, I think it's important that

I think what you're saying a little bit there, Pat, is it would be nice if the president were a little bit more precise with his language in that particular case.

Yes.

The Democratic hoax does exist.

It is a hoax about his involvement in the Epstein case.

The Epstein case itself is not a hoax.

Trump knows that.

Everybody knows that.

But the way he says it is

not worth talking about.

The whole thing is not a hoax.

It is worth talking about.

His involvement in the case is not worth talking about.

It has been investigated.

It's open and shut.

It doesn't exist.

It doesn't exist.

There's just nothing there.

That doesn't mean that the whole case is not

to that level, though.

And that is an important thing, as you point out, for victims who actually were affected.

More coming up in one minute.

All right, if you're moving from one place to another, it's not just stressful.

It is personal.

You're not just selling a house.

You're closing a chapter in your life.

And the last thing you need is an agent who treats it like it's just a transaction.

Realestateagents I trust.com is a network of top-rated professionals from around the country who actually live up to the word trusted.

They know how to price your home and sell it fast and how to negotiate on your behalf when you're buying.

They don't just check boxes.

They actually care.

And the best part is they've been vetted by Glenn's team.

Glenn Beck, of course, started this company years and years ago after having some negative experiences of his own with real estate agents.

Every one of these agents on this service is someone he'd feel confident sending a close friend or family member to.

And, you know, we could, this is something he's talked about.

He just bought a new house in Florida, just moved to Florida.

He used an agent from realestate agentsitrust.com.

That's not only did he create the company, he's using it in his real life.

Realestateagents I trust.com.

You can use it too, and it's free to you.

I don't know.

I think we should have charged Glenn for it.

That's just my own personal opinion, but it is a free service to you.

Realestateagentsitrust.com.

It's realestate agentsitrust.com.

10 seconds station ID.

One thing the victims did say yesterday I found

useful

and really

something that I can't believe hasn't happened until now is Lisa Phillips, who's spoken extensively about the abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein, said several of us, Epstein survivors, have been discussing creating our own list of names.

There doesn't seem to be an actual list of names that Epstein had on file.

You know, we've been told that by the FBI now.

We've been told that by Ghelaine Maxwell.

Everybody says

there is no list.

So she says we know the names.

Many of us were abused by them.

Now together as survivors, we will confidently compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world, and it'll be done by survivors for survivors.

No one else is involved.

That would be great.

I

fully support that.

Hope that happens.

I hope they come up with a list of names.

These people are looked into, and maybe once and for all brought to justice,

it would be great if we could finally put this to bed.

And then you could, you know, then you could stop talking about the

Epstein case.

Because

until there's justice served for all of these girls, these 14, 15, 16-year-old girls,

you know, there's just there's no way there can be no end to it, really.

Meanwhile,

there's a new bill that is being proposed by Thomas Massey.

who

filed his discharge petition on Tuesday as soon as Congress came back into session?

It should reach at least 218 signatures, would force a vote on his bill to make public all Epstein-related materials

with minimal redactions.

They would just take out the names of the victims, leave everything else in there.

So I don't know if that'll happen, but I guess we'll soon find out.

Yeah, you know, I am surprised that at some level this is still going on, you know, because it just seems amazing that we don't know all this information already.

Like, as it's been almost 30 years in some cases, a lot of the victims even want this stuff out there.

I don't know what the reason is to hold it back.

I mean, I know there are, I mean, it's more difficult than just saying, okay, flood the internet with all this stuff.

I know there is a redaction process that is necessary, but it's time we just know this information.

Yep.

This is Glenn Beck.

I support PragerU because they're doing something extraordinary.

They're preserving American history in digital form.

You probably know how much I care about preserving truth.

History means a lot to me, even more so fighting for what is right.

It's a core value of mine.

That is why I support Prager U.

Like modern-day clay pots, they're safeguarding the truth.

Truths that have been hidden away in our classrooms, so our children and now grandchildren can be indoctrinated with progressive ideals to destroy our republic.

Prager U videos reach millions of people every single day, especially young people.

And they're changing minds at scale.

And I've seen it.

I've talked to the kids.

I've talked to my kids about it.

It works.

I would like to invite you to be a part of this.

Nobody else can do this.

Nobody else is doing this.

And it's working.

Together, we can give America's kids the truth they deserve.

If history in the classroom matters to you, would you help PragerU?

Triple E.

B-E-C-K.

Did you see our friend Malcolm Gladwell on that podcast?

Mm-hmm.

This is interesting.

I think it is interesting.

I'd love to get your take on this.

I'm curious.

The reaction to it has been interesting to me.

Yeah.

I haven't seen a lot of the reaction.

Are people enjoying his change of heart here?

I would say from the right, I've seen more people angry about it.

Really?

Like angry at him

for what he.

Because he was cowed into the support in the beginning?

Yes.

Like, you know, like essentially no forgiveness.

I'm angry about it.

Okay.

And I'd love to get your take on this.

Yeah.

We should play it.

He appeared on a podcast with a guy that he was on a panel with at MIT,

I think in 2022.

And so they were on this panel together and they were talking about men,

trans

women who are actually men in women's sports.

And here's what he had to say about it.

Malcolm chaired a session at the Sloan conference.

That's a big event held every year at MIT in Boston.

I think it was in 2022.

I lose track of time, but he was the chairperson and I was on a panel of three or four.

I forget exactly how many

los track of time, but he was the chairperson and I was on a panel of three or four i forget exactly how many but

they started the panel they started against you ross they put a trans athlete and a trans advocate

and you

on the panel and i was the moderator and it was one of those strange situations where

i my suspicion is that 90 of the people in the audience were on your side, but 5% of the audience was willing to admit it.

My recollection of it is that everything I said was met with deathly silence, and everything the other two said got cheers.

Well, but the cheers were very, I mean, I think there was a hardcore of people who were ideologically committed to the position.

But the idea that,

I mean, there's many interesting things to say about that conversation.

One was that it was a particular moment which has passed.

If we did a replay of that exact panel at the Sloan conference this coming March, March, it runs in exactly the opposite direction.

And it would be, I suspect, near unanimity in the room that trans athletes have no place in

the female category.

I don't think there's any question.

I just think it was a strange...

I mean, I felt, I mean, I was...

The reason I'm ashamed of my performance of that panel, because I share your position 100%,

and I was count.

The idea of saying anything on this issue, I was,

I believe in retrospect, in a dishonest way.

I was objective in a dishonest way.

I let a lot of really, of howlers pass.

Don't comment.

And I said to you in an email, There was that moment, remember, when, and I've forgotten her name.

She's wonderful, sorry, I've forgotten their name.

it's a very very high person it is uh they were the the trans athlete on the panel and at one point they turned to you Ross and they said

Ross you have to let us win and it was at that moment that I realized this position has gone

this argument has gone to the furthest extreme

What the trans movement is not asking for,

they're not asking for

a place at the table.

They're not asking for to be treated with respect and dignity what they're asking is for no one to question the considerable physical physiological advantage they bring to the sport and no one to question if they're going to win these races by five seconds suck it up that's what they were asking

right which is which is you know in other words if a really good casta semenya comes along who can run 147

what they're saying is you just have to like

so

they win by 10 meters.

So they win by 15 meters.

I mean, you would win by almost 100 meters, right?

Yeah.

So that's what they're saying.

What they're saying is you should have to live with that.

Yeah.

So

that's enough.

Yeah, thanks.

Yeah.

I thought that was brave that he admitted it.

That's interesting.

I applaud him for actually admitting it and saying the right thing now, because a lot of people wouldn't.

They wouldn't admit that they were wrong in the beginning.

I agree with you.

I don't, I would not say the reaction that I saw, at least online, we would be in the majority.

Really?

Yeah, it seems like they were just pissed that he

was cowed into it in the first place.

Basically, calling it pathetic.

And here's the thing: so is he.

He's also calling that pathetic.

Right, yeah.

Malcolm Gladwell himself is calling Malcolm Gladwell

pathetic.

It was dishonest.

It was a dishonest moment.

And like, it's not to say that

everyone has moments like that in their lives you try to have zero of them i'm sure i've had one i'm sure you've had one i'm sure everyone in the audience has had one you like

what it highlights is that moment which we've highlighted a million times as completely insane it was not something that we cowed to but but that Like, we could sit here and say how strong we were, we are in every single situation and how we always take the right stand.

i i don't know what value that has i guess it makes you feel good about yourself today and i think that's why a lot of people you know are stepping on on malcolm on this and i i'll say i like malcolm godwell i like his content you know i will say if you like history his book about uh the uh

the um the way we changed our uh uh you know um

uh bombing uh techniques in world war ii he has a book about that uh it's i think it's an an audio book.

It might be an audio book only, but it's really interesting.

I like his content and I like him.

He's been on the show.

It's been a while, but he's been on the show before.

But

my belief with people like this that I think are being honest about a moment in their lives where they were wrong

is to say,

hey,

Thanks for being on the right side now and admitting it.

I don't think Malcolm Gladwell is a hardcore conservative.

He's not.

He's definitely not.

So for him to make this admission and say the right thing now, at least what I consider to be the right thing, is

laudable.

I think it's praiseworthy.

An opposite example of this, Pat, that I think we all agreed on was

Kevin Hart.

Remember Kevin Hart?

He was going to host the Oscars.

And he, it was the Oscars, right?

Yeah.

And he was about to do this.

And then the LGBTQQIA2 Plus mafia stepped in and said, you made a joke in 1907

about gay people.

You're bad.

You can't host this.

And then they kicked him off the Oscars.

And at the time, we all, I think correctly said, that's completely nuts, like a completely insane position for you to have.

It was in the peak woke era.

It was wrong that Kevin Hart, who's not a conservative, was victimized by this.

It was insane.

We all took that position.

But another important part of that position, at least in my mind, was to say that if you were an LGBTQIA2 plus activist, and you trace what happened with Kevin Hart, which was what he said was a joke about, you know, gay people a million years ago.

And then he said, yeah, I wish I didn't make that joke now.

Like, I, you know, I wouldn't make that joke again.

At the time, it's kind of what

I thought was funny, but like, I actually don't think it's funny now.

And he essentially adopted their position.

He had been moved, I don't know if it was real, but he had been moved from a position that their side disliked to one that he liked and

that they liked.

His reward for that was to get destroyed.

Yeah.

And I just don't see why that's beneficial to your movement.

Selfishly, a person of a lot of influence, Malcolm Gladwell, taking our position

in a situation like this should be something we're happy about, not angry about.

And I am.

I am too.

I like it.

I mean, if you'll notice, put up the, if you can show Malcolm at his home, I guess, is where he is,

during this podcast.

You'll notice

over his shoulder there, over his right shoulder,

a poster of Mao.

Yeah,

so

he's not a conservative.

Not a conservative.

I will say he's a guy who is fascinated with history and has talked about that type of stuff before.

He's not getting caught having the picture of Mao behind him.

He's talked about that type of thing.

But again, he's not a conservative.

But he's not conservative.

No, I think he tries to be a person who

looks at a situation honestly and tries to decipher what the right position is outside of politics, which is why he's embarrassed about what he did in 2022.

He's embarrassed about that moment because he, who's a guy who's taken a million difficult to defend positions on the left and the right over the years about history, about different effects,

you know, in psychology.

And he gets, you know, he gets beat up.

He's very, very popular and very, very wealthy.

So I think he, you know, he dries his tears with $100 bills.

I don't think he's that concerned about that.

But

he's a person who I think tries to make those determinations and is embarrassed that he allowed himself to be caught up in a moment.

And

we should embrace the fact that someone's admitting it.

I'm happy that he said this because the alternative, by the way, is, and this is what's happening all over the media, is they just don't say anything.

They act as if

they were either on the side the whole time

or they just don't say anything about how they've changed their mind because they don't want to get beat up by people.

So I don't know.

I don't feel like we jump on top of him because I'm sure he's getting hit by the left right now.

In some cases, they'll just stick to what they were saying in the beginning so that they don't look like they've changed their mind at all.

You don't have to deal with it.

And continue to defend men in women's sports.

He didn't do that.

So I say good for him.

Good for him.

Triple 8-727-BECK.

More coming up.

This is

Glenn Beck.

Having a safety plan is essential.

If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm.

Start smarter.

Start less lethal.

Start with Burna.

The Burna launcher is the most effective self-defense tool available today without the legal, financial, or emotional consequence that comes from using a gun.

I carry one myself.

I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna too.

I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just moved out on their own.

The new Burna Compact Launcher, it's the world's smallest, less lethal pistol.

It's concealable anywhere.

It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds, and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes.

It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack.

No background checks.

It's legal in all 50 states.

Ships straight to your door.

And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays, trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies.

It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal.

Visit burnabyrna.com and find the right launcher for your family.

That's burna byrna.com.

This is Patton Stewart for Glenn this week.

Speaking of

trans

men in women's sports,

disgraced Olympic boxer Imani Khalif has submitted an appeal to an arbitration court about being banned from women's boxing.

Now, this is the person.

I want to hate women.

I want to beat up on women.

And he really wants to do it badly.

So he's trying to get back into the sport without taking the test because the World Boxing Association now requires that you take a test to make sure you're female.

if you're in the female sport.

It's a Meyer.

And

he's already failed that test.

Multiple times, right?

Multiple times.

This is the person, though, that won the gold medal in the Paris Olympics.

They never stopped him from competing against the women in the Olympics for some reason.

It was bizarre,

but they kept swearing up and down.

No, no, this is a woman.

And of course,

he's not.

He's not a woman.

But did win gold in the women's competition, is trying to get back in.

But metal medical documents showed that the algerian has x y chromosomes and that seemingly puts the whole thing to

rest

does have some kind of condition called um

it's described as five alpha reductase type two deficiency so he reportedly has x y chromosomes internal uh testes and a micropenis that's a wonderful set of details there, Pat.

Thank you for providing me.

You're welcome.

You're welcome.

Sounds an awful lot like Tim Walls, doesn't it?

That was just my thought.

Wow, are we describing Tim Walls?

It's a good thought.

It's a good thought.

But I guess, no, we're talking about this boxer still.

And like Tim Walls,

I'm not.

It's not to say that someone in this situation, let's just say the situation is as you described it that I don't necessarily need to hear again.

I wasn't necessarily going to say it again because it's a strong word to say on the air, isn't it?

None of that makes me feel comfortable.

But what I will say is that a person in that situation, if that is actually the situation he is in,

does not deserve to be brutalized by our community, does not deserve to lose rights because of it.

Right.

Nobody's saying that.

Right.

One line I think we can draw is you shouldn't beat the crap out of women.

Right.

I don't know.

I feel like that's the line.

It's a pretty bright one that I have.

So you're picky enough to say that men should not beat up on women.

Yeah, yeah.

I think that's a really.

You know what?

I think I'm with you on that.

I'm pretty sure.

I feel like in

now, this might be a little too extreme, and it's okay, Pat.

If I'm too extreme for you on this, that's okay.

I think in 100% of cases, we should eliminate that.

I just don't think that's good.

I don't think it's good.

And especially in a sport like boxing.

For sports.

Wow.

Yeah.

No.

Wow.

You know what?

No.

And I am sorry if there's some line that we don't understand that with whatever situation you got going on down there that makes it okay that you think you should beat up women and you believe we're wrong.

So sorry, no.

You're right.

You don't get to punch women in the face.

It's the one thing we're going to disallow.

You can go work as an accountant and no one's going to have any problem with it.

You can't go beat up women.

Now, I am legitimately at some point extreme on the

female boxing thing.

And like, I don't even like women beating up women.

I would like to never see it again.

I know if you're an MMA fan.

MMA is really hard to watch.

I can't watch it.

When it's women.

I can't watch it.

I can watch the men beat the crap out of each other.

I can watch that totally.

As our own Hillary Kennedy will point out, she's a huge MMA fan and loves it.

And I'm sure she loves it.

And she loves it with the women.

I can't watch it under any circumstances.

So I'm extreme on that one, but

let's just make a rule.

How about dudes that they can't beat up on chicks?

Can we come to that agreement?

You would think.

You would think.

This is Glenn Beck.

What would you say, Hillary, if I said we should make it illegal for women to get punched in the face in this first sport?

She would say no.

That's my favorite fights to watch.

The favorite

fights are the best.

Yes, I say we send the women in there to Chicago.

We could sell tickets, but great.

I will say that would work.

That would probably work.

I think so.

It would be effective.

I'd watch.

It's fascinating.

I'm okay with the bloodbath with men.

I don't do it with women.

I don't like it with the women.

We're missing out.

This is the most fascinating thing about you, Hillary.

It is.

It is.

It really is.

If you don't know, Hillary,

she's literally the nicest person I've ever met in my entire life.

And yet she's like, yeah, I want to watch.

Of course, I want to watch women get punched in the face over and over again.

Everybody's got to have a vice.

That's true.

Luttier than better.

That's true.

That's true.

And I will say around here, a lot of people's vice, just being Cowboys fans,

women being punched in the face for sport, obviously better than that.

So we can all agree on that particular thing.

thing.

Thank you so much, Hillary.

the Glenn Beck Program.

Pat and Stu for Glenn, 888 727BECK.

Here's our phone number.

JD Vance talked about the Venezuela boat strike, and so did Marco Rubio.

We'll share what they had to say about it.

If you didn't see it,

it's pretty interesting.

There's a boat full of people, 11 of them.

For a while, and then there's not.

And then there's not.

And then there's not.

And then there's not.

And so we'll get into that in much more coming up.

You know, some people are having a bit of a moral conundrum on that particular news story.

I will say, I'm having a bit of a moral conundrum myself when it comes to tonight's football game.

The NFL is back.

Football is back.

It's tonight.

Oh, my gosh, that's right.

Tonight, we're America's team, the Philadelphia Eagles, defending world champs, take on the embarrassment Dallas Cowboys.

And here's the conundrum I'm having.

I'm on Prize Picks right now.

I love prize picks.

I play it all the time.

And they occasionally will give you what they call a free square.

And this one for this game tonight is Dak Prescott over

more than, if you will, 0.5 yards.

Now, I do believe Dak Prescott will have more than a half a yard passing tonight.

I do believe that, unfortunately.

It's seriously a line?

Seriously, yeah.

There you go.

Oh my gosh.

Well, of course you're going to go over that.

So you're going to go over that, but that means I have to, in theory, hope for something good to happen with the Dallas Cowboys index.

What is more important to you, making money or cheering on the Eagles?

Well, I'm going to cheer on the Eagles either way, but I'd like to do both.

Maybe I'll do both for that particular.

This is the thing with price picks.

You just do more or less on a given statistic.

Sometimes you make these cool discounts and bonus payouts and everything else.

You do this on a few players, and you can win big money, you know, hundreds, thousands of times for your money.

It's a lot of fun to do as well, even when like the worst game of the weekend is on and you're not at all really interested in it.

This is a way, I mean, Daily Fantasy Sports is a great way to up the excitement with prize picks.

Right now, you can download the app and use the code STU, get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.

The code is STU to get $50 instantly when you play only a $5 lineup.

It's a great way to get involved in prize picks.

It's good to be right.

You know, you mentioned the conundrum that we face with this

missile strike on a boat in the middle of the water, I guess, the middle of the ocean.

Doesn't really say where they are, but I assume it's, you know, they were supposedly on the way to America.

It was Trende Aragua, they say.

11 guys in a boat filled with cocaine.

I don't, okay.

I guess they probably had really solid intelligence, and so they just wiped them out with a missile strike.

All of what you just said is is very true.

And that's what makes the story, I think, interesting in that a lot of the stuff,

like if you, if I was 100% convinced, right, which I don't have any reason to doubt their intelligence, but I have

made statements like that before before, like, let's say Iraq.

Yeah.

You know,

that's the problem.

And that's the thing.

We've made mistakes before.

We have made mistakes before.

Remember the Afghanistan thing where they killed the family of 10

in a mistaken attack.

I do remember that.

And,

you know, war is war, and sometimes these things do happen.

And they do happen.

Yeah.

You don't want them to, but they're going to.

Yes.

That's why you try to avoid war, by the way.

And you try to.

One of the many reasons.

One of the many reasons.

But what you said is true in that

they were, we think, headed towards the United States.

We think in the ocean somewhere off the coast.

We think

they were trying to Aragua, and we have designated these cartels and these groups as terrorists now.

Maybe we have to start there.

Are you comfortable with that?

Are you comfortable with saying Trende Aragua is a terrorist group?

I am.

I think I am.

Yeah, I'm okay with that.

There's enough evidence to show that they are attempting to do massive damage inside the United States.

They are responsible for a lot of them.

They've already died.

They've done a lot of them.

They've done a lot of damage.

I'm comfortable with that assessment.

I don't know that everybody is.

I'm comfortable with that assessment.

Me too.

I think the issue that maybe gives some people some hesitation and maybe

is part of the effect that I'm seeing and hearing and feeling a little bit, which is I haven't really seen the case on these particular incidents.

We haven't had a lot of information as to what was happening.

We haven't had a lot of information at who these people individually were.

We don't have a lot of information as to how they came to these assessments.

In fact, we've got virtually no information

on any of that.

It's kind of weird.

Now, my guesstimate would be they're probably very much justified.

I would think so, too.

Now, I it just looks it's disturbing because, you know, 11 people just died in a flash.

And of course,

you really hope that they knew for

sure that these were bad people doing bad things.

Yes.

And now they were stopped, and now they're not going to get to do those bad things.

And I like to be more sure of these things before, you know, before, you know, boats explode.

But again,

we're not in the intelligence business.

We don't see all this stuff.

Because I, generally speaking, have faith in

someone like Marco Rubio, for example, to assess that situation accurately,

I'm more likely than not to believe that, hey,

this is probably very adjustable.

I do think of the other way, you know, because I remember this happening during the Obama administration when he would drone people outside of our borders that he said were terrorists.

In some cases, American citizens.

Yeah.

And that, I think, is a different line.

No one is, as far as I understand, saying that these Trend Naragua members were U.S.

citizens.

And that would be a different line for me.

Yeah, me too.

But at the time, I do remember a lot of people calling and saying, hey, you know, Obama's just droning people all over the world without justification.

And the reason for that, I think, mostly is we don't have that faith in Barack Obama to make those assessments.

We are convinced, I think, accurately, that his interests are not always aligned with the best interests of the United States.

And because most people, I think, in the audience would agree the Trump administration does have those interests aligned with the best interests of the United States,

in certainly most cases.

Yes.

Marco Rubio as well, Pete Hegseth, whoever you want to name.

Jay Devance, whoever.

Yeah.

Like we feel confident in it.

And so I feel more comfortable with something like this.

But it is, the case wasn't certainly built over a long period of time on this.

this, right?

It wasn't like

not with us.

We haven't been shown that

a little harder to assess.

All that being said, what Trump is trying to do here, Pat, I think, is send a very large, marquee, billboard-style message to these organizations,

these cartels.

This can happen to you, too.

It is

not something they hid.

This is something they put in the trailer for their movie.

Which is why they're showing it to us.

They want us to see it.

They want this message to resonate in Venezuela

and northern Mexico with all the drug cartels.

Look, here's what we're going to do to you.

So how about you stop transporting drugs to our shores?

Yeah.

That might be a good idea.

This video was shown

10% because Donald Trump believes

he wants you to know that he's taking this stuff seriously and he believes that it's the right position and he believes there's a political benefit to show that he's serious about this stuff and the promises he made during the campaign to take it seriously are happening that's 10% of it 90% of the reason you saw that video yesterday was Donald Trump saying to Trend Aragua think about this the next

scenario for a second Pat

you're a drug dealer I mean it would be more helpful if Jeffy was here today but we'll just say you're a drug dealer okay you're a person who's a mule you're You're taking drugs across the border.

You've done this a hundred times.

Maybe five people in your family have done it previously and been arrested and they went to prison and then they got released and got out and are now back again.

Yeah, whatever really well.

Yeah, I'm describing a very real situation with you.

And

your guy comes to you and says, hey, guess what, bud?

Your turn.

It's boat time.

You're going to take some drugs into the United States via boat.

Are you ready?

After seeing that video, are you doing that?

No.

I think you're more likely to go, sure, and then take a boat to the next port and get off and run away forever.

No question.

It's going to into like...

It's a deterrent.

It's a deterrent.

Yeah.

The fact is that a drone can be over your head and blow you up at any time is going to at least dissuade some drug dealers from attempting it.

It can't help but, right?

It's human nature, self-preservation.

You don't want this to happen to you.

So yeah,

it's pretty effective to make this known to the entire world.

Here's what's going to happen to you when you're transporting drugs to the U.S.

So

the other side of this, though, is that the mainstream media now sees a way where they can attack the administration for not doing what they said that was going on with the Maryland man.

Okay, he didn't

stay in court.

You didn't arrest him and put him in court and put him on trial.

So in the middle of J.D.

Vance talking about the victims, because he went to Minnesota to

meet with the families of the victims from the shooting at the church last week.

And he's outside talking about it right after that occurred.

And they take the occasion to hammer him on Venice.

What about this Venezuela pot strike?

What'd you have?

Here's how Vance addresses it.

On the Venezuela vessel,

you know, vessel strike, what legal authority were you Venezuela

under, and will there be an after report on the strike?

Well, I'm sure there's going to be an after-report.

I mean, the legal authority, and I want to talk about these kids, is that there are people who are bringing literal terrorists who are bringing deadly drugs into our country.

And the President of the United States ran on a promise of stopping this poison from coming into our country.

Another question?

Another question.

So

a brief, but

fairly powerful.

Yeah.

Then there was Marco Rubio.

Rubio talking about really hates these cartels and Venezuelan communism and Cuban community like this is really the central part of Marco Rubio's belief system this is where

he

does not have a moment of hesitation with this stuff

And here's what I mean.

These are not stockbrokers.

These are not real estate agents who on the side deal a few drugs.

These are organized, corporate structured organizations who specialize in the trafficking of deadly drugs into the United States of America.

They pose pose an immediate threat to the United States.

Period.

If you're on a boat full of cocaine or fentanyl or whatever headed to the United States, you're an immediate threat to the United States.

And the President, under his authority as Commander-in-Chief, has a right under exigent circumstances to eliminate imminent threats to the United States.

And that's what he did yesterday in international waters.

And that's what he intends to do.

We're not going to sit back anymore and watch these people sail up and down the Caribbean like a cruise ship.

It's not going to happen.

It's not going to happen anymore.

They're not going to bring drugs into the United States.

We're going to stop them.

I know a lot of presidents have talked about doing it.

This president is not a talker.

He's a doer.

That's true.

The central administration of almost everything with the Trump administration.

It sure is.

You know, it's funny.

This particular

issue is a really good example of

the sort of meme that goes around online.

This is what I voted for.

People, Trump voters saying that.

This is exactly the type of stuff that Donald Trump appeals to his base most on, which is, here's a problem.

It's been intractable for a really long time.

People have all said they're going to do something about it.

Nobody ever seems to do it.

But we actually are going to.

And Donald Trump just doesn't care.

He doesn't care if it seems extreme for a boat to blow up on a video.

It's a huge part of his appeal.

He doesn't care what.

He's promoting it.

Yep.

Right.

Like that is the central difference between, I think, Donald Trump and a zillion other politicians.

Because look, there's lots of Republican politicians that have policies that are tough on drug dealers, and they'll describe them.

Almost none of them would do something like this, including Marco Rubio when he ran for president.

As much as the passion you hear from Rubio there, and I believe it's incredibly sincere, I think it's the most sincere thing about Marco Rubio.

He really feels passionately about this type of issue.

He wouldn't have done that.

He would not have said that in his 2016 campaign.

No, and that's why Rubio has been so much better than I thought he was going to be.

Yeah, he's been good.

Hasn't he been a pleasant surprise in this capacity?

In his role as Secretary of State, I think he's been great.

I've never been a Rubio hater.

No, I haven't either.

But I wasn't a massive fan of Rubio either.

Right.

One of the situations that he was criticized back in the day was the border.

He was looking for a sort of light touch border approach, at least according, you know, not light touch like the Biden administration, but light touch maybe to the right, where you're treating, you know, people who have been here illegally.

And you're talking about maybe a path to citizenship.

A gang of eight or nine or twelve or whatever it is.

He was on that side of things.

Now, look, circumstances change.

Maybe he's changed his opinion on that.

But I think too, Trump

allows and encourages a certain boldness that people really like, especially when it comes to stuff like this.

When you're talking about terrorists, when you're talking about,

you know,

drug dealers, people who are murdering U.S.

citizens,

a lot of people in America don't have much time for it.

They don't really want to see a light touch approach.

They want to see this.

And look,

I think in this case, we don't have all the details, so it's hard to 100% say this, but I think in this case, he's on the right side of the law.

This is a terrorist organization.

He's allowed to do this.

And I think it's something that you feel,

assuming all the details that we don't know are true, you feel completely fine with watching a bunch of people who are trying to literally murder Americans blow up in a boat.

I don't love the idea of war.

I don't love the idea of attacking.

But like when you're preventing deaths of your own citizens,

this is 100% justified by a president assuming all this information is correct.

And how long has the supposed war on drugs existed?

We've fought fought that war since the 80s?

Yes.

The 70s?

It was the 80s, right?

It hasn't worked.

But this approach, I think, will.

This approach is going to work.

Now, again, Trump also said, you know, he has sometimes been friendly to, what's the guy in the Philippines?

Oh, yeah.

I can't think of his name upsetting.

Duarte.

You know, and his approach, which is there are many elements of that approach which are extra-constitutional in this country.

Would not be possible.

Trump is trying to find every way he can to be very, very tough on these people within the bounds of our rules and constitutions.

And that is, I think, what people want.

They don't want you to be

nice anymore on this stuff.

They want you to go as far as you can within the bounds.

It's the same thing with the crime in all these cities, within the bounds of the Constitution.

You have to be able to find those lines.

Those lines are important and bright.

But if you can go up up to those lines and say, we're giking as much ground as we can on this because this is a serious problem, I think the American people, generally speaking, will cheer him on when it comes to that stuff.

If he starts crossing those lines, he could lose people in a big way.

888727 back more coming up.

One minute.

I support Prager U because they're doing something extraordinary.

They're preserving American history in digital form.

You probably know how much I care about preserving truth.

History means a lot to me, even more so fighting for what is right.

It's a core value of mine.

That is why I support Prager U.

Like modern-day clay pots, they're safeguarding the truth.

Truths that have been hidden away in our classrooms, so our children and now grandchildren can be indoctrinated with progressive ideals to destroy our republic.

Prager U videos reach millions of people every single day, especially young people.

And they're changing minds at scale.

And I've seen it.

I've talked to the kids.

I've talked to my kids about it.

It works.

I would like to invite you to be a part of this.

Nobody else can do this.

Nobody else is doing this.

And it's it's working.

Together, we can give America's kids the truth they deserve.

Pat and Stu for Glenn.

Today and all this week,

triple 8727BECK.

We just played J.D.

Vance and Marco Rubio on the Venezuelan boat strike.

Here's Judge Janine Piro talking about intercepting the ingredients for meth and how much of it they confiscated.

Hi, everyone.

I'm Judge Janine, and I am in Houston, Texas,

and I am surrounded by 1,300 barrels of precursors.

1,300 barrels.

These precursors were seized as a result of work by my office in Washington, D.C., along with Homeland Security and Customs and Border Patrol.

These 1,300 barrels were shipped from Shanghai, China to Mexico.

We intercepted these precursors on the high seas and now the Sinaloa Cartel will not be able to use them to make methamphetamines.

And the bottom line is this.

Whenever there is an effort on the part of foreign terrorist organizations to create drugs that are killing Americans, we will seize them, whether it's on the high seas or whether it's in the country or a foreign country.

And by the way, it's going to take 2418 wheelers, 2418 wheelers to take all of these containers and put them in a secure storage facility.

Wow.

And that's what we're doing in DC, but we're doing it in Houston today.

And you never know where we're going to be tomorrow.

Again,

note to terrorists, note to drug cartels.

We're doing things a little differently now.

So you're not going to find a friendly reception to the drug trade that you're dealing in right now.

That's not going to be good for you.

So I would think that based on what they've seen this week, it would put some doubt in your mind, right, about whether or not you want to continue this.

About whether or not you want to transport drugs over the U.S.

border.

You're the drug dealer in the scenario.

Don't you remember?

That's how we set this up.

Don't make me make the decision.

You're the one who's.

Okay, I'm going to say no.

I'm going to say I'm not transporting any drugs over the U.S.

border anymore.

That would be enough for me.

That should be the messaging and the feel, right?

Uh-huh.

Not you're welcome here.

Not come to cross our border like we got from the Biden administration, not specifically to drug dealers, but that's a different message, right?

Yeah.

A big part of the success on the border is just the messaging.

Yes, we've taken steps beyond that, but that's a big part of of it.

But we haven't built the wall yet.

And look at the decrease in illegal crossings now.

It's massive.

Unbelievable.

It's been the most inarguable success of the Trump administration.

Even if you don't like his policies, it's impossible to argue that that has not worked really, really well.

This is Glenn Beck.

Cozy Earth products bring next level comfort that shows up day in and day out.

Let's talk about their bamboo joggers first.

They're seriously buttery soft.

I didn't know joggers could feel like this, not like I'm jogging or anything, but I can wear them at home, you can stroll on the beach, even on flights, and they never lose their shape.

And the comfort stays consistent no matter where you go.

They'll totally redefine how you lounge and live.

Now, the everywhere pant.

It lives up to its name.

It's lightweight, it's breathable, incredibly flexible, and yet still polished enough to wear out.

You can run errands, catch a movie, pretty much everywhere else.

You can take them and wear them, and they look great and they move with you and always look sharp.

And my favorite part is how Cozy Earth nails balance between unmatched comfort and everyday function.

They're game changers, and it's not just me, everybody I know who's tried Cozy Earth is completely hooked.

Pat Gray, Stupergear for Glenn this week, Triple 8 8727BECK.

Stu, I'm a little torn on this

mayoral race in New York City, so I'm guessing you are about split in half over it because President Trump did something very interesting this week.

He had his people get together with New York City mayor Eric Adams, who's in the race against Zoran Mom Dani.

The speculation is, I think it's stronger than speculation, I think it's pretty well out there, that

Trump is going to offer him a position within the administration to get him out of the mayoral race, which, to me, is brilliant.

It's amazing how many irons in the fire President Trump has.

And this is another one where he's trying to fix something that could be catastrophic to this country.

Gosh, he is incredibly crazy.

Does he have a moment to sleep?

It's legitimately incredible.

It's amazing.

So many big things he's doing all at the same time.

And again, like, we've talked about this over

a bunch of different topics.

This is not a, you know, there's a lot of Trump cheerleader shows out there.

There's a lot of shows that just tell you Trump is Hitler.

Like, I really look at each one of these things individually.

Some of them I really, really like.

There's a few that I'm not crazy about.

We've discussed them over and over again.

And we've discussed all of his successes over and over again.

Totally separate from what your percentage is on success and failure,

just the sheer amount of what is happening on a day-to-day basis.

Mindboggling.

There has never been a government that I can remember that is doing more

than this current one when it comes to Donald Trump.

Now, legislatively is another issue.

Obviously, there's not a ton of stuff that's gone through Congress here, and there's a reason to concern it.

It is Congress's fault.

If you like the stuff, it's all Congress's fault.

Yes.

With the exception of our rules with the filibuster, which I do not want to see go away.

So there are some limitations, of course, when it comes to having control of government if you can't clear that filibuster number.

But like

just to stepping back, there is a shock and awe element as to what is happening on a day-to-day basis with this administration.

There's always a major thing going on, and I think that's by design for Donald Trump.

I think he's saying, look, pedal of the metal,

every Monday, there's a press conference about something big going on,

and it is,

it's a hell of a thing to watch.

He's pretty much left no stone unturned.

And this is a big one because, I mean, this is our financial capital of the country, of the world, essentially.

New York City.

You don't want a communist running in.

No, that would be bad.

Just don't.

It would be catastrophic.

So he's trying to get some of the people that are splitting the vote out of the race so it can be a head-to-head between the guy who has the best chance to defeat Zaran Mamdani.

And that, unfortunately, is Andrew Cuomo.

So he's trying to stop it.

He's trying to get Eric Adams out of the race.

Already got the other guy who had 1%.

He already dropped out.

He did drop out?

Yeah.

Okay.

He dropped out.

He's gone.

And so if you get Adams out,

and I think he's also considering offering Sleewa something.

Curtis Sleewa might be enticed to join if they can find a job for him in the administration.

They're offering that to get him out of the race.

And then it's just Andrew Cuomo versus Zaran Momdani, which I know you're conflicted over, but very.

I am a cheerleader for Andrew Cuomo, if it's between the two of us.

So you would prefer the guy who murders old people and gropes who the women around him is.

Yes.

Yes.

It's tough.

You have to understand.

Here's my position on the race.

Number one,

you should just freaking vote for Curtis Liwa.

Yeah,

for some reason, they won't.

Well, but let's stop and think about this for just a moment, shall we?

Okay.

This is not, yes, it's a liberal city, but it is a liberal city that has routinely, somewhat routinely, actually elected Republicans to be the mayor.

Right.

And what the result of that process has been is the best era of New York City.

I mean, Giuliani saved the city and completely turned it around.

We know that.

And Bloomberg was elected as a Republican.

Now, Bloomberg had all sorts of problems with and did not think he was terrible.

He turned out to be terrible, but he was a Republican when elected.

In context, did he turn out to be terrible?

I don't think he turned out to be terrible as opposed to David Dinkins.

I don't think he turned out to be terrible as opposed to Bill de Blasio.

No, de Blasio was much worse.

Much worse.

And so, you know,

I think you would just think.

That the people of New York would recognize this, that they, unlike most.

Please.

I know.

please, if you live in New York, please consider what you're doing here.

Unlike most American cities that have dealt with real problems, poverty, crime, and all of these things, the people of New York have actually

experimented with what it would be like to have a city run by a Republican.

And what they have found is that it's been really successful.

It's worked really well.

The best periods of New York over the past century have been ones where a Republican was the mayor of the city.

Look what he did.

What he did to just Times Square, just that alone.

Incredible.

Just turning that part of the city around and going from some sleazebag area of a town to a really nice

touristy kind of place with all kinds of shops and places to eat food.

And it's safer, you know, than it was in the 80s and 90s.

And that was all Rudy Giuliani's doing.

He brought in Disney to help revitalize it.

It all worked.

I mean, how do you argue with that?

It was incredible.

It was an incredible change.

And the problems that we had with a Bloomberg, which were, there were many,

though,

in comparison to what you're talking about with a Mom Dani or a Cuomo, they're not even remotely close.

Like, do I like the fact that he was trying to get rid of large sodas?

No.

No.

Salt.

Salt.

I mean, those things, a lot of nanny state nonsense, you know, closing down roads in the city, you you know, for bike paths and all sorts of nonsense.

And much larger than that, much more importantly, absolutely unconstitutional gun restrictions, which is a major thing.

But of course, you'd get that from Cuomo and you'd get that from Momdani, too.

You know,

the person you should vote for if you're in New York is Curtis Sliba.

Yes.

I don't understand how he's not even being considered.

What is the only thing the man has done in his life is say crime is bad.

He's not.

And fought against it.

Actually,

put his actions where his mouth was, and actually patrolled the streets with, you know, his

guardian angels.

And it really helped.

It really helped.

He made a positive impact on New York City.

And I don't know if there's any doubt about that.

I don't know what the reason why he's.

I mean, I guess the reason why he's not being considered is maybe because of that history.

He's been around for a while.

It's the beret.

That's remote chances.

I've been encouraging him to get the beret, throw the beret away.

Does he still wear the the beret?

He does, but he's taken it off recently.

I think my suggestion.

Really?

Yeah, because I've been a very big critic of the beret.

But when he takes it off, you see the permanent indentation of his forehead of where the beret was.

Really?

And so I think he put it back on because it was just too,

it was too mind-boggling that you've worn the beret so long and it's so tight, apparently, on your head that you've got a permanent indentation from it.

Wow, I did not.

That's why people won't vote for me.

See, this is why I got to listen to Pat Cray Unleashed on Blaze TV.

You don't have to say analysis from anybody else.

Has any other show ever given you the real story on Curtis Lewa and the indent in his forehead?

No, no, you don't hear that.

Look, that's who you should vote for in this election: Curtis Lewa.

But they're not going to.

They probably will not.

He is not going.

And did you see the recent poll on Head to Head?

They did a poll of Cuomo versus Mom Donnie.

I I did see that.

Supposedly 5342 Cuomo, which is pretty amazing.

And that's obviously what the Trump administration is reacting to.

So they're trying to get everybody else out.

Can you excuse me a moment, Pat, and forgive

the fact that I can't really get excited over that development?

Yeah.

I don't.

Andrew Cuomo is among the worst people our society has ever produced.

Yes.

Now, Mom Donnie might be worse than him on the scale.

Yeah.

In that our society didn't even produce him.

He came from another society that produces even worse people.

But forgive me for not being excited about one of the worst human beings on the planet getting rewarded yet again.

Again.

Yeah.

For

causing the deaths of a bunch of old people and groping everybody around him.

Forgive me for not being excited about that particular outlet.

Though I will say his policies in the city, which will be terrible, will be slightly better than Mom Donnie's.

So, hey, aim high, America.

I know.

I just can't be excited about it.

I want bad things to happen to both of them.

Not, you know, politically, not in any other way.

I want, like, I want their 401ks to go down.

I want when they go to McDonald's and they order

an extra value meal, I want the wrong one to be in each bag.

I want their orders to be screwed up.

I want them to get caught in traffic on a regular basis.

They both suck beyond imagination.

Yes.

So

I can't be excited about it.

Are you extreme enough to wish combination skin?

Combination skin.

What do you mean, combination skin?

It's part oily, part dry.

Really hard to deal with.

Wow.

So would you wish that?

How would one?

On Andrew Cuomo?

How would one deal with such a thing?

No product can solve that.

Was it Dove?

I can't remember the product that cures that, but I think it was Dove.

Find out.

Moisturizing Dude.

You chat GPT that right now.

You know, I think

at the end of the day, I understand why people are excited about this.

It's funny because

if there has been a person who has been

worse to Donald Trump than Andrew Cuomo,

you're probably climbing to the ladder to a Letitia James.

I mean, there's not many people who have been worse to Donald Trump than Andrew Cuomo.

The fact, this is something that I think gets left behind on Trump.

The fact that he would even entertain trying to help Andrew Cuomo in an election shows you that he,

while, yes, he does have his grudges and he has his biases against people.

Maybe we'll get into the Rosio Donald tweet a little bit later on in the program today with one of the funniest pictures I've ever seen in my entire life.

While all that is true, when he feels like a better outcome for the country, the area, the city is achievable, even when he hates the person, he'll embrace it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And I think that's the case here.

I think he believes Cuomo, while terrible, will be better than Mom Dani.

Yes.

So he will entertain these types of ideas, which,

you know, again, you're rewarding someone who is awful.

I mean, why not just, why not just, we should have, before he killed himself, we should have just put Jeffrey Epstein as mayor of New York.

Can we come up with worse people?

How is it possible our choice could be a socialist anti-Semite that pretty much wants every Jew dead?

Yeah.

I don't think that's an official policy yet.

But if he comes up with enough power, it will become one.

And the opposition is a guy who

put

people with infectious disease in rooms with elderly people and watched thousands of them die.

Literally.

Denied all responsibility, used government resources to write his stupid book,

who is corrupt, in my view, in every corner.

of his administration, who has used power to

boss around and destroy people's lives, who allegedly groped all females that came within 100 yards of him and were like, that guy's better.

How can this country be in a position where it has to make choices like that?

It is despicable.

By the way, it doesn't.

Curtis Lee was there.

He's available.

He's on the ballot.

And all he wants to do is stop you for getting a knife in your chest on your way to work.

That's his big crime.

What a disgrace.

What a freaking city that is.

I was born in New York State.

You know, I'm a, technically, I guess that makes me at some level a New Yorker, though I definitely consider myself a Texan at this point.

But good heavens, what has happened to this freaking place?

I will also throw into that mix on this country being a little screwed up at times, AI just told me there is no one single brand that fought against combination skin.

That can't be true.

That is not true.

That is another example of AI being inaccurate or lying.

More coming up.

You want the truth unfiltered?

Pull up a chair, my friend.

You're in the right place.

This

is Glenn Beck.

Having a safety plan is essential.

If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm.

Start smarter.

Start less lethal.

Start with Burna.

The Burna Launcher is the most effective self-defense tool available today without the legal, financial, or emotional consequence that come from using a gun.

I carry one myself.

I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna too.

I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just moved out on their own.

The new Burna Compact Launcher, it's the world's smallest, less lethal pistol.

It's concealable anywhere.

It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds, and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes.

It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack.

No background checks.

It's legal in all 50 states.

Ships straight to your door.

And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays, trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies.

It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal.

Visit BurnaBYRNA.com and find the right launcher for your family.

That's BurnaBYRNA.com.

Pat Breaking News.

The first

skincare company to address combination skin, Clinique.

Clinique?

Yes.

Okay.

Clinique.

They were the first to really say, hey, your T-zone can be oily while other parts of your skin are dry.

And what do you do about that?

You can't do anything.

Wait a minute.

There's Clinique.

Okay.

When did that start?

1968.

Wow.

1968.

So it's been around.

It's been around for a while.

Maybe that wasn't the central part of their advertising in 1968.

But they used it.

They apparently did use it at that time.

At least according to the internet.

So, but the point of this was:

what will it take to get Zaran Mamdani to just go home and not be mayor of New York City?

Because I that is a catastrophe waiting to happen.

It is.

It is really damaging to the country.

They're going to him with some kind of job in the Trump administration.

Right.

The argument for Cuomo is: look, New York's already corrupt.

Yeah.

I mean, look, the guy who Trump is talking about embracing and bringing into

the administration is a guy who had

employees allegedly handing out bags of chips with cash inside of them to reporters.

That was fairly recent.

That was like two weeks ago.

Yeah.

It's already a corrupt disaster.

What could Andrew Cuomo possibly do?

This is Glenn Beck.

There are certain things that will never go to bed.

Yes.

And that's one of them.

That is definitely one of them.

Never will happen.

But, you know, this

doesn't mean we shouldn't look at more information on it.

Yeah.

You know.

Right.

I mean, I obviously feel the same way with the Kennedy thing.

Like, it's like they released all the Kennedy, not the Hillary Kennedy, but the President Kennedy and the assassination stuff.

Which I thought was going to yield something to sink your teeth into.

Which it really didn't.

It really didn't.

It was the same old thing.

We pretty much knew all the stuff that was in there.

Which, you know,

disappointing.

It was never really an obsessive on the Kennedy stuff.

I've always found it interesting, and that's probably of all the theories out there, that's probably one where you might be onto something, you know, because maybe more than Oswald.

Yeah, I think that's a different line to me than some of the other theories that are out there.

There could have been more to it, I think, is significant, but like, I don't know.

There were 19 shooters on the grassy knoll.

I'm less convinced.

Yeah.

But still,

the point of that is never going to be.

People are never going to be

satisfied.

It's going to go on forever and whatever.

That's okay.

Let everyone have their theories.

This is

the Glenn Beck program.

As hard as it may be to believe, there are

like major politicians in this country who still don't understand where our rights come from.

It's incredible.

But we'll share one of those people who doesn't know from where our rights come in just a second.

Plus, we are making America healthy again.

We'll talk about all the tremendous changes that have helped that to occur.

Get into that much more coming up in one minute.

I keep walking around like grocery stores and malls, and they don't look that much more healthy.

They all look like me still.

I thought it was fixed.

Oh, okay.

No, okay.

Well, maybe we're going to get it.

We got rid of red number 40 or whatever, didn't we?

So that's

it done?

It should be all set, I suppose.

The bank doesn't care about your goals.

It doesn't care that you're trying to get out of debt.

It doesn't care that you're saving for your kids' college.

It doesn't care if you're healthy again.

It doesn't care about any of that.

To them, you're just the number.

And that's why we always talk about American financing.

They do things differently.

They work for you, not the bank.

Their mortgage consultants aren't commission-based, so there's no pressure, no upselling, just real conversations about how to help you save.

If you're a homeowner and you haven't looked into financing lately, you could be missing out on hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars a month in savings.

They can help you pay off high interest debt.

They can help you shorten your loan term.

They can help you lower your monthly payments so you can breathe a little bit easier.

And if you're buying a home, they've got access to every loan program available, they're going to know exactly what kind you need, and they'll walk you through the entire thing.

It's still your mortgage, it's still your home, but with American Financing, you've got an advocate in your corner, someone who actually listens to you.

So, give them a call.

It's American Financing, it's 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or AmericanFinancing.net, AmericanFinancing.net.

Pat and Stufer Glenn this week.

Wow.

Tim Kaine, U.S.

Senator from Virginia, formerly a governor there, a lieutenant governor.

He's been around a long time.

And he still seems not to know

where American rights come from.

Huh.

Check this out.

The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't come from the government, but come from the creator, that's what the Iranian government believes.

It's a theocratic regime that bases its rule on Shia law and targets Sunnis, Baha'is, Jews, Christians, and other religious minorities.

And they do it because they believe that they understand what natural rights are from their creator.

So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.

That is it.

Is it extremely troubling?

Pat, it's one of the most unbelievable things I've ever seen come out of a government official.

It's incredible.

Really incredible that you're that unaware of what this country was founded on that our founders absolutely believed that our rights come from God.

Because if they come from man, man can take them away.

If they come from God, man can't take them away.

It is the most important foundational aspect of the founding of the United States of America.

Gosh, that's incredible.

It is literally the most important ingredient in our nation.

It's the number one.

Number one.

It's why it's in the Declaration of Independence,

very clearly spelled out in the Declaration of Independence, but it's also in,

it's littered throughout our founding documents.

Yes.

And the concept is

and the writings of our founders.

Yes.

I mean, it's in,

read the Federalist Papers.

I mean, it's,

are you that unaware?

How is that possible?

That man's 67 years old and a U.S.

Senator.

U.S.

Senator.

Wow.

You know, we were talking about this on a, I think it was you and I.

I talked to Jeffy about it a little bit as well when he was on with me on Tuesday.

But

the fact that we keep seeing news reports where people will say, oh, I mean,

we should just get rid of these automatic weapons.

It's stunning to me that they still make that type of mistake.

It's such a basic misunderstanding of firearms, like between automatic and semi-automatic.

And over and over and over again, people who are brought on as experts to speak on, let's say, a mass shooting will say and make basic mistakes about how firearms even operate, what the laws are around them.

People who are calling for new laws don't know what the current ones are.

And I'm always fascinated by that.

This is a totally different level.

This man, I assume, swore an oath.

Is there a country?

I assume he was involved in that process?

You would think so.

This is someone who has been in government, who almost was the vice president of the United States.

And you might say to yourself, what are you talking about, Stu?

Let me inform you, he was Hillary Clinton's pick

in 2016.

Now, we all forget about that because he's a giant zilch in every single way.

But, you know, this is not a guy that has zero prominence in the United States.

No.

And, you know, he's a fairly educated guy.

Okay, if you grew up in a cave somewhere and you weren't educated, you've never heard any of this.

Okay.

He graduated from the University of Missouri and then he got a law degree from Harvard.

You should have somewhere along the way stumbled into it at least.

Something.

Yeah, and when you put your right hand up to the square and you swear allegiance to the Constitution,

you don't know what it's based on?

You don't know where our laws come from?

Wow, that is incredible.

Staggering.

In case you didn't know,

the Declaration of Independence says this.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator

with certain unalienable rights.

Among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Among these, by the way, not all of them.

Right.

Among these.

And I don't even know how to react to it.

It's like, does he actually really not know?

Is this, it sure seems to me to be a statement of ignorance, that he is unaware that that is how our country is set up.

Now, if you were to say, Pat, if instead, the audio we just played for you, if instead the statement was this, our founding fathers, who had many great ideas,

told us that the rights come from, your rights come from God.

And while that is what they believed, I disagree with it for these reasons.

That would have made some sense.

I'm worried about if we have someone who gets in power like

some Iranian official, they will misinterpret those rights and use them against the American people.

Whatever your dumb theory is,

You couldn't say, we could all, we'd probably play the clip anyway, and we'd say he's wrong and dumb.

But I don't think we would be able to say he's completely ignorant of the way the country was founded.

That is what we are saying today: that this man who was almost vice president of the United States,

40,000 votes in three states was the difference between this man being vice president of the United States and not.

And the man has no awareness of what our founding documents over and over and over again outlined.

Mind-boggling.

And not just some minor thing, not like, you know,

it's a Federalist 149.6 and this one little throwaway line.

No, it's like the first thing they say.

It's the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence.

Do we have the response from Ted Cruz?

We don't have it, but he, first of all, read what I just read from the,

of course, he did it, you know,

very quickly and angrily.

He was pissed.

Because, you know, one thing, you know, some people like Cruz, some people don't like his style or whatever, but like the man knows the Constitution really well and knows the founding documents really well.

Has, I mean, he was, you know, drilled by his dad to memorize them.

He has memorized most of these things.

He

did hammer.

Yeah.

He hammered Kane on it.

I think I can.

You have it?

I think so.

Although I can't hear it.

Maybe I don't have it.

But if there's anybody who's qualified to hammer Tim Kaine on that stupidity, it's Ted Cruz.

The man knows the Constitution.

He knows the founders and how they came up with this stuff.

They didn't just pull it out of their rectal cavity.

It came from somewhere.

And I thought that was pretty basic knowledge to virtually every American.

Certainly U.S.

senators.

You would think.

Yeah.

Now,

you could probably convince me that AOC has never seen that sentence before.

You know, does Jasmine Crockett,

maybe not.

You think, yeah.

Jasmine Crockett is a complete idiot in every single way.

We're all kind of aware of these things.

Perhaps she's just never stumbled upon the sentence.

And that's just one example of it.

And really what's key there is because everyone would say, by their creator, which is really key there.

And it isn't key.

But why is it important?

Why is it important that we continually do not forget

the path of these rights, that they come from God to us, that we lend them to the government?

Why is that path important?

Because of the word unalienable.

Right?

It is saying to everybody, guys, there are certain things that the government, no matter what their opinion is, can't do anything about.

So quite clearly, if they can't do anything about these rights,

they are not the ones handing them out.

And if we lose sight of that, we will begin to worship government instead of God.

And this was crucial

to the founders.

It was foundational to them.

They were in the middle of dealing with a government who thought about it the other way, who said the rights come from the king to the people.

and the entire reason the country was founded was to avoid the exact dynamic Tim Kaine thinks is awesome.

This is how stupid these people are.

It's mind-boggling that these people rise to these levels.

There are no words in the English language to cover how butt stupid these people are.

You said how butt stupid?

But stupid they are.

Yes.

Like stupid as a butt.

Yes.

A human

behind.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Exactly.

That's fascinating.

Butt stupidity is one of the worst forms of stupidity on this planet.

That's in the documents as well, by the way.

You'll find it in there.

It is.

Look for it.

You'll see it.

All right.

Triple 8727BECK.

More coming up in a minute.

Well, we had another breach.

Another week.

Another breach, right?

This is TransUnion this time, one of the three major credit reporting agencies.

Hackers got in through a third-party application, stole names and birthdates, even social security numbers.

By the way,

we have not even talked about this today, but the lead story in the New York Times today

was about

a Chinese hack.

Chinese cyber attack may have stolen data from

almost every American.

Not so not every American.

Not every American.

Just almost every

American.

Oh, my God.

This stuff is happening all the time.

And

you might not be with TransUnion.

You might be with one of these credit card companies.

Well, I got news for you.

China just took your data.

That's happened.

Apparently, it was a massive multi-year attack.

So how do you protect yourself?

Because it's not just the Chinese government having it.

It's what they do with it.

They can leak this stuff to hackers who are going to target you as well.

They can sell this data.

All sorts of stuff can happen.

So just get with Life Lock.

They monitor millions of data points every single second, looking for signs that your identity is being misused.

Things like suspicious credit applications or your info showing up on the dark web.

If something looks off, they alert you fast.

And if your identity is being stolen, LifeLock doesn't just send you a checklist.

They assign a dedicated U.S.-based restoration specialist to fix the damage.

And yes, it's backed by a money-back guarantee.

Look, you can't stop every data breach.

You know, no one can.

And maybe China could help by stopping to do this stuff all the time.

But you can be ready ready for them by protecting yourself with Life Lock.

Speaking of China, they just put on a big, big military parade, invited a whole bunch of their closest, most personal friends to join them for it.

Everyone loves a parade.

Oh, yeah.

And I think they enjoyed this one.

Just to watch the missiles and the tanks and whatever roll down Tiananmen Square was, I'm sure it was breathtaking and beautiful.

And people like Vladimir Putin were there, and I think 26 other heads of state from all over the world.

And President Trump addressed that together yesterday, cut 11.

I've been together in this sort of show of solidarity.

You said that they're conspiring against the United States.

What do you think they're conspiring to do?

And given this, is it reason why you should slap or would consider slapping secondary sanctions on Russia if they're conspiring against the U.S.

now?

Well, I've already done that with regard to India, and we're doing it with regard to other things.

And I put out a truth last night.

You saw that.

And I was the one that brought it up.

I said

they're only doing this, they're really there

looking to,

when they did what they did, I thought it was a beautiful ceremony, I thought it was very, very impressive, but I understood the reason they were doing it, and they were hoping I was watching, and I was watching.

My relationship with all of them is very good.

We're going to find out how good it is over the next week or two.

I think that

we helped China very much, as you know, when they talk about freedom.

And I don't believe that, and maybe I'm wrong, I hope I'm wrong, but I don't believe that America, that the United States was acknowledged for helping China

to gain its freedom.

But perhaps that was just a

sleight of hand.

I mean,

I was very surprised.

I watched the speech last night.

President Xi is a friend of mine, but I thought that the United States should have been mentioned last night during that speech because we helped China very, very much.

Yeah.

It's unfortunate.

And I just, that's why the tariffs that he's placed on India are a little bit

concerning to me because he seems to have pushed them into the arms of the BRICS nations.

Again, of course, they were already part of that, but they seem to be getting closer now to Russia and China.

which is not a good thing,

you know, for the most populous nation on earth.

And they were really good friends.

Modi loves Trump.

India loves Trump.

And I think this sort of put a wedge between them a little bit.

At least Modi wasn't at the parade, though.

That seemed to be

a real indication of, yeah, we support China and we're going to be there for them.

I can't agree with you more.

I just don't think it's a great approach.

I understand the president.

And look, the president says a lot of things.

He just said one there, which was he was surprised that President Xi would do this.

He's not he.

The president of the United States is not at all surprised that President Xi would do this, right?

Like, he's saying these things to negotiate with these organizations and these countries.

That's right.

And I think that's also what he's doing with India.

A big concern here is that they are making our sanctions against Russia less effective.

Now, again, I'm told that Donald Trump loves Russia and is a Russian asset.

So I don't know why he would be doing such a thing.

He's just apparently very bad at understanding his role as a Russian asset.

But he's doing this to punish Russia and trying to separate them.

I would, and I've argued for this for many years on this show.

I think one of the central things we should do right now to fight against China is to embrace India.

It is

a power that we can actually get along with.

They have some friendliness to capitalism, some friendliness to Western values, not all by any means.

They're a mess, too.

But they do have the world's largest democracy.

Yeah, we're told.

Quote unquote.

Democracy.

By the way, you said most populous nation.

Are they bigger than China now?

Yes.

They surpassed China in population a couple of years ago.

It's weird what happens when you have a policy of like limiting children for many, many years.

It doesn't matter.

Isn't that strange?

Your population growth over time.

Yeah.

So India.

That's why they finally removed that one-child policy in China because of that very problem.

We have the same problem without the policy.

So it's, you know, it's just naturally taking place for some reason where we don't have replacement rate berths anymore.

Though it's much better here than it is in some European nations in particular.

Yes, it is.

But I just think, you know, this

we do need a manufacturing base overseas.

We're not going to make every product we need here.

This is just true.

I know

North Korea does attempt it.

It doesn't work out very well for them.

Cuba attempts it to make everything they can inside.

You're going to need allies.

You're going to need a manufacturing base outside the country.

And, you know, it needs to get better.

And we're trying to rectify that problem and make it better.

But you're right.

It'll never be completely

dependent here.

Yes.

You know, a good example of this is chocolate.

There is no place in the United States where you can grow the beans for chocolate outside of one small area of Hawaii, I believe it is.

We import all of it.

Now, I really like chocolate.

Yeah.

Kexi Cookies burns through about 900 tons of it per week.

Correct.

K-E-K-S-I.com if you'd like to have 900 tons of chocolate delivered to your home in a delicious fashion.

But like, we get all of that.

None of it basically grows in the United States outside of, again, the one place in.

It's amazing we've survived for 249 years without

growing our own chocolate.

Right.

How'd that even happen?

And you can be

a record.

It's amazing.

It's a miracle.

We get a lot of vanilla from Madagascar.

Wow.

Right?

Uh-huh.

And so, like, I think you can be a person who says, hey,

the way we've done things over the past 30, 40, 50 years, you might not like that.

And you might want to move toward something where we are more

protective of our nation's manufacturing base, especially when it comes to really important things like maybe steel or medicine or whatever.

But we do need trade.

We do need

places that are going to build a lot of the stuff that we're not building here.

And we're not going to build everything here.

That's just not going to occur.

So a great place, if we can be friends with India, push them in the right direction now before they start siding with Russia and China more, I think that's a worthwhile pursuit.

Hopefully one that we adopt pretty soon.

Cozy Earth products bring next level comfort that shows up day in and day out.

Let's talk about their bamboo joggers first.

They're seriously buttery soft.

I didn't know joggers could feel like this, not like I'm jogging or anything, but I can wear them at home, you can stroll on the beach, even on flights, and they never lose their shape.

And the comfort stays consistent no matter where you go.

They'll totally redefine how you lounge and live.

Now the everywhere pant.

It lives up to its name.

It's lightweight, it's breathable, incredibly flexible, and yet still polished enough to wear out.

You can run errands, catch a movie, pretty much everywhere else.

You can take them and wear them and they look great and they move with with you and always look sharp.

And my favorite part is how Cozy Earth nails balance between unmatched comfort and everyday function.

Can you believe tonight is the night of NFL football?

NFL football is back

on the not-so-frozen tundra

of Memorial Stadium.

Is that what it is still?

Lincoln Financial Fields.

Lincoln Financial Field.

Almost Memorial Stadium, which I think he meant Veterans Stadium, but that's a whole veterans.

That's what it was.

Yeah.

Memorial Baltimore?

I don't know.

It used to be.

I don't know if there is a memorial anymore because we don't remember things now.

Now we only have products.

Yes.

Yes.

We only remember product names.

The Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, tonight.

What a way to kick off the year.

One thing we'll see, interestingly, in this broadcast tonight is a piece of cloth of some sort unfurl itself and reveal the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.

That banner will hang, and that is going to be fantastic.

Gosh, I can't even believe I say those things.

I went went my entire life, Pat, with nothing.

Yeah.

With a giant.

You had two in the last seven years.

Two.

The last seven.

Seven?

Yeah.

Yeah.

2017, 2024.

Wow.

You know, those seasons.

Yeah.

Actually, 28 and 25, but, or 18 and 25, but seven years apart.

Still, an incredible thing to have lived through.

And I have a feeling this is as good as it gets.

So

I understand

that

I have no sense

going forward that good things will occur to the extent that, you know, with the Eagles playing the Cowboys tonight, I live in Dallas,

which for many, many years of my life would have been torture.

I mean, in the 90s, it would have been awful.

Last few years have been wonderful.

Since they haven't won a Super Bowl or been to a Super Bowl in over 30 years, it makes your life a little

less stressful.

Well, how long ago was the Clinton presidency?

I can't remember.

It was a while ago.

It was a while ago.

It's been a bit of time.

Was it even, was it even uh it was it was only clinton's first term now wasn't it yes it wasn't even that second term for clinton

that's right there's a documentary on netflix which i'm sure you have not watched uh but no but i would watch it i would watch it i would yeah

it's still a fascinating

uh america's team

And then the gambler and the cowboys or something like that.

Yeah, and I'd watch it, I think, as

a physician to diagnose the psychosis that I know from so many Cowboys fans, but also the fact that just a real historical archive, like

a piece of history that almost you can't track down.

You know what I mean?

You go back and you look at like

how was the wheel invented?

You know, it's so long ago.

The fact that they even had video at that time, I think, is fascinating.

I will say this, though, especially about Jerry Jones.

Interesting guy.

Interesting guy

and a pretty good return on investment.

He bought the team in what, 89, 88, 89-ish

for $150 million.

It is now worth $9.2 billion.

That's awesome.

If he ever sells a team, it'll be a great investment, but he's not going to.

No, it'll stay in the family.

Pretty good investment.

And I thought I read that his operating revenue per year is something like $600 million.

And he bought it for $150 million.

Wow.

And I will say,

of all the figures that have crossed through the Dallas Cowboys world, Jerry Jones is one of my favorites.

Yeah.

Yes, for many reasons.

First of all, he seems to be

somewhat right-leaning figure.

Yeah, he seems to be.

I don't know too much about his politics, but that's my understanding.

And secondly, I love what he's done with the Cowboys for the past 30 years.

I think he's done a great job.

He didn't like what he did with him at first.

No.

First couple years, he's run three Super Bowls.

But lately, I've really fallen in love with the guy.

And I I really am concerned.

I think we should have

a national

GoFundMe to make sure his medical care is tip-top.

I want this guy to be around forever.

I want him to be around forever doing the things that he does.

Like, what a great trade!

Right.

Where he was able to give Micah Parsons to my Green Bay Packers.

To the Green Bay Packers.

That was a good move on his part.

I think it was a fantastic move.

Now, I'm worried legitimately about the Green Bay Packers and how good they will be with him, but I am really excited to see him outside of

Dallas.

By the way, there was a story today that came out.

I know we're into football a little bit here.

There's a point to this, but

that

the Eagles reached out to try to get Parsons.

Oh.

And it's like, can you imagine there's zero chance the Cowboys would trade Micah Parsons to the Philadelphia Eagles?

There's literally zero chance.

I love the fact that they tried, though.

Yeah, make the phone call.

That's good.

Why not?

Give it a shot.

But it's incredible how much we care about this.

Why?

Why do we care about it?

I asked myself that probably once a season, I think, wow,

do I need to be this obsessed about football, especially BYU football?

Yes, you are.

I am obsessed about that.

About BYU football.

And you care so much.

You're a much bigger college football fan than I am.

I'm a bigger NFL fan, maybe than you are.

But like, we both have that same

bizarre.

Yeah, it is bizarre.

Why?

How did that happen?

And I've never been able to adequately answer that question.

It just is.

It is.

It is.

It just is.

It just is.

Now, you didn't go.

No, you didn't go to BYU.

No, I did.

I did not grind.

I didn't go to any college.

BYU or otherwise.

You're not an alumni.

No, I am not.

Which is usually what indicates

that hardcore college interest.

Maybe you went there.

Maybe I had family members that went.

I've had children that have gone.

I have not gone to BYU.

But man,

I am still obsessed.

And not just with football, but all BYU sports.

And this is real.

It will be the middle of some random season, and Pat will come in and be like, oh,

what's wrong?

He's like,

BYU lacrosse.

What?

I couldn't even tell you the rules of lacrosse, but I do care about whether or not they win their lacrosse match.

And there's no real understand, there's really no reason for it.

I can't even, I said this before, I can't even trace the reason how, I don't know how I became.

How'd you become a Philadelphia?

Because you're not from Philadelphia.

Not from Philadelphia.

You lived there for a few years.

I lived in Connecticut, basically, where I was born in New York, raised in Connecticut.

My dad was a big Giants fan.

But the show was in Philadelphia for a couple years.

But that's

way after you became a Philadelphia.

I was a child.

I am not at all the type.

And then we do have some people.

I occasionally see it around here, the Blaze Circles.

It's just disappointing.

When you go into, you move to a new city and you just adopt the team.

Well, their stadium is closest to me.

Like, this seems to be the reason.

Honestly, it makes me hate the teams more.

Like, you know, when I lived in Tampa, man, I couldn't deal with the Bucs because, you know, everyone was a big Bucs fan.

Loved the people of Tampa.

They were awesome and huge Bucs fans.

And the Bucs are a really good team and are one of those teams that scare me, frankly, the NSA.

I root for Baker Mayfield.

Yeah, and I like Baker Mayfield too.

I like the Bucs generally, you know, but like when I was there, it was annoying because everyone's, you know, everyone, it's tough to be the fan of the team that everyone hates, which is essentially my life every day in Dallas.

But I do think there is a way, you know, if you look back,

go back in time,

a lot of the things we've developed as cultures are ways

for all of us to stop killing each other.

And you go back to trade.

Like when I, you know, if I come to you, Pat, and we're in the old timey days, and I've got a bunch of wheat and you've got a bunch of flour and we want to make a trade for it.

You know, at times there was a time way, way, way back where people would go to war over these things.

We need wheat.

They'd attack.

You get the wheat.

You know, you kill the tribe.

And tribes warred about this stuff all the time.

Eventually, we came up with currency.

to try to bridge that gap, right?

So these things wouldn't occur.

Politics is another example of this.

Politics, if nothing else, is a way for us to stop killing each other.

It's supposed to be that we go to this central room and we all have votes and they all argue about things that are really important to each other.

And because we have some way of solving them politically, it doesn't rise to the level of what it used to, which were warring factions, actual warring factions, not like the ones we call them today.

Where we're like, oh gosh, Republicans, Democrats disagree.

Obviously, we've seen some Antifa members that take this to the extreme, but generally speaking, we're able to deal with people who believe other things.

And the political process of free speech, discussion, this is how we solve those things, or at least attempt to solve them.

And I think, in a way, sports feeds that same desire.

We all have that inherent desire for competition, for

a

we have this like

base level thing that wants us to cheer on our tribe.

And what sports brings is an example for us to exercise those muscles without killing each other.

We don't need to go down those dark roads because we have football on Saturdays and Sundays.

Wow, that is beautiful analysis.

Thank you, Sigmund.

That was really good.

Look, you might not agree with that analysis, but it's a...

I wholeheartedly embrace that.

It's a hell of an argument to bring up to your wife on a Sunday.

Yes, it is.

I'm trying to heal our community.

This is my quest for peace.

That's what this is.

All we're trying to do is solve the world's problems.

You don't want that to occur.

Wow.

Why do you love war so much?

Are you for Vladimir Putin?

Is that what this is about?

Another Russian asset in our midst.

This is not me just wasting three and a half hours on a Saturday and Sunday.

This is my quest for peace.

My wife, right now, would be thrilled to sign up with me only wasting three and a half hours on Sunday.

She would see.

She would lock that in in a second.

She would be thrilled by it.

What she's watching instead.

Let me give you an example.

It's going to be three hours on Thursday.

It's going to be three hours on Friday at Chiefs Chargers, right?

On Friday.

On Friday, for some reason, a Friday kick.

Whatever.

I'll be there.

That's weird.

I will be there.

In Brazil.

In Brazil.

Okay.

Then I will be there.

That's a weird trend.

I don't like this trend.

I don't like the outreach.

Playing internationally.

I don't like it.

Why did Iowa State, Kansas State play in Dublin, Ireland for the opener?

Money.

I guess.

That's why that happened.

I guess, but it's ridiculous.

And really, a future pursuit of money more than anything else.

I actually agree with you on that, especially because I don't like the time zone stuff.

Yeah.

They play all those London games during the NFL season.

That's hard on the teams.

If I'm the coach, I'm saying, no, not interested.

You can't, unfortunately.

But I would agree.

Also,

as a viewer,

it's a 9 a.m.

game on a Sunday.

I've got stuff.

As much as I love love football, church is important to me, too.

So I've got to have to choose that one over your game.

So I miss a game.

I hate that.

But anyway, I will watch

the, what do you call in tonight's post, the one o'clock game tonight?

I'll watch the tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

As much as I can.

Is there one on Saturday this weekend?

I don't think there is this weekend.

One o'clock, four o'clock, and then Sunday night football.

And then Monday night football.

And then Monday night football.

That's it.

It's

one request I have for like 25 weeks a year.

Calm down.

The only week the NFL has not confiscated is Tuesday.

Well, Wednesday, too.

They did have during COVID a Tuesday game, I believe.

I think they did.

Yeah, because it kept getting delayed because there's too many sick people on the team or whatever.

It's incredible.

Tuesday and Wednesday, I think they did play.

But yeah, it is now Thursday.

Now, Christmas, there's games this year again.

Thanksgiving, of course, has always been a big part of the process.

They really are just rolling over the entire schedule and expanding.

They really are.

There probably is some point.

I don't know what it is.

For me, I don't know what it is.

There probably is some point where they get the saturation where, like, you do have to go to war.

I have a job.

I can't be watching every single moment of my day.

But I've been seeing this trend online.

Have you seen this, Pat?

There's a bunch of them, but like the one I saw this morning was a guy who is giving his wife

his two weeks' notice

that he will no longer be available on any of these things.

Right.

That's good.

Just resigning our marriage for multiple hours per week.

But again, we've discovered it's our quest for peace.

It's our quest for peace.

So it all makes sense.

Back.

We'll be right back.

Let me tell you about Relief Factor.

You know it's weird when you stop to think about it.

When you were younger, you didn't really ever think much about pain.

Not when you climbed a ladder, carried groceries, spent a Saturday fixing the yard, you just did things.

Somewhere along the way, some little calculations began to start.

At least in my head, maybe I won't pick that one up.

Life started getting a little more difficult day after day, and your interest in abilities got narrower and narrower.

Relief Factor is about widening them back out, and it's four natural ingredients that support your body's fight against inflammation that can cause long-term pain.

No drugs, no knockout side effects, just a chance to reclaim those everyday moments without worrying about any of the consequences.

You've been watching me for the right time to take control of your life.

It's right now because life is still out there and it's not going to wait forever.

So go and grab it.

Relief Factor.

Let's make the can I do that question disappear in your life.

Just try it for three weeks.

Take it as directed.

1995 to try it for three weeks.

800 for Relief.

Yeah, okay.

Very interesting developments, by the way, in the world of politics.

Jerry Nadler is stepping down.

He's not going to run for re-election.

We lost him.

Lost him.

Well, we're going to lose him

as a representative.

And you might say, well, he's terrible.

You might say that.

However, without him, I don't even know who's in second place with a person who jacks their pants up to their nipples.

Who's the next person in line there?

I don't know.

It's only Jerry Nadler.

It's going to be tough to find.

But check this out.

You're going to miss things like this.

I'm proud to join my colleagues in introducing the Protecting Our Democracy Act so that we can get a lot of people.

Don't pay attention to what he's saying.

It doesn't matter.

It's not a good checks and balances.

It's the end.

It's so fundamental to our democracy.

Okay, watch this.

Okay, he just pooped his pants.

And now

at least we suspect very much.

I want to

the distinguished chairman in acknowledging the legislation of

members of Congress

contained in the chairman's

legislation that they

did.

And then watch him walk.

And I also

think that he's not part of this package.

And now he's shuffling out

preserving

our democracy.

With that, I'm pleased to yield to you.

What is going on?

He pooped his pants.

The cameraman's very confused.

Am I supposed to keep this guy in frame?

Like, why is he.

That's interesting, Pat.

It does seem like he pooped his pants off stage.

I've never heard him make the admission like Al Roker once did.

Pooped in your pants.

I pooped my pants.

I do remember the Al Roker.

Okay, what?

You pooped in your pants.

I pooped my pants.

You pooped your pants.

And he did it at the White House, too.

He did it at the White House.

Now, what year was that, Pat?

The Jerry Nadler thing?

I'm not sure, but I think it was a couple years ago.

Okay, because I was going to say, I saw Nancy Pelosi in a mask, and I was like, if this is.

Everybody around him was in a mask, and supposedly he smells that bad, where people would wear a mask around him because the odor is so unpleasant.

He is legitimately known as the worst-smelling member of Congress.

And that might be why.

Because he poops his pants.

That would do it, Pat.

I'm not a scientist, but I think one would lead to the other.

No, it's fairly logical.

You can kind of make that leap, but

at least he's leaving Congress.

We know that.

This is Glenn Beck.
